The summer of 2024 is and will not only be very hot again this year, but above all one thing: very sporty!
Starting with the European Athletics Championships, which took place in Rome at the beginning of June, through to the final round of the European Football Championship in our own country, which is currently in full swing. And as if that wasn't enough, the Olympic Games start in our French neighbors just two weeks later.
Thousands of athletes are represented and are proof of the amazing things the human body is capable of.
In everyday life, however, it is often the little things that can have a big impact on our general fitness. Get enough exercise, eat less meat, avoid processed foods. Sounds familiar, doesn't it?
Nevertheless, there is a hidden food crisis in the Western world. Did you know that Germans, for example, consume more sugar every day than actually recommended by the World Health Organization? Hidden in foods such as bread, dairy products or even plant-based substitutes, they are supposed to taste better, but instead excessive consumption leads to unconscious blood sugar fluctuations, cravings and lack of energy. In the long term, this accelerates cell aging and leads to chronic diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, which account for the largest proportion of all causes of death worldwide at 74%.
Based on these findings, FSIWS startup Leìos Food developed a nutritionally based product range to help you cope with everyday life with balanced blood sugar levels. No matter how stressful it is.
The secret ingredient? Apple cider vinegar!
As a typical ingredient in the kitchen, apple cider vinegar is a good home remedy with many health-promoting properties. The secret is the acetic acid it contains, because it not only slows down the breakdown of carbohydrates, but also helps muscles process more glucose. At the same time, insulin secretion is reduced and fat burning is increased.
Sounds great at first, but apple cider vinegar isn't really a taste experience. Leìos Food has changed that. Your ACV drops and shots taste like mint-cucumber, grapefruit, vanilla-apricot, ginger-grapefruit or celery-lemon and bring many important vitamins and nutrients into everyday life.
The products from Leìos Food are not only a solution to blood sugar fluctuations, but are also beauty food that slows down cell and skin aging.
The FSIWS is very happy about working with the founders Aileen and Anina and is excited to see what other ideas will be born.
